I the most favorable conditions. An exchange | says: MT. James makes 'tIngomar" what he really was, an uncouth, clustering barbarian and not the sti1ted, declaiming, tragedy hero we are accustomed to see. He does not roar and stamp when he is crossed, but we see plenty of indications of power and passion that could be called into play did the situa- tion demand it. Miss Wainwright was sim ply charming as Parthenia. To those whose idea of the character has been derived from Miss Anderson's cold and statuesque 1mper- sonation it was revelation.
 KATE CLAYTON.
 Miss Kate Claxton will appear at the New Haven Opera House on Saturday afternoon and evening in the part of 'Louise" in the ''Two Orphans" She will be supported by MT. Charles A. Stevenson and strong con- pany throughout. Any of the central fig ures of the play of the 'Two Orphans" trans ferred to canvas would be a study. The cir eumstances surrounding them are invariably poetic or picturesque. Almost every phase of men and women is presented; the bad are very bad, and the good are gentle and lovely in their worth and shine in bright and glo- rious light; but in the hands of Miss Claxton ''Louise" becomes the center of all interest and the recipient of all sympathy.
 JOSEPH HAwoRTH.
 One of the pleasantest events in our dra- matic season will be the appearance of MT. Joseph Haworth, the young American actor who has distinguished himself in what ever branch of his profession he has been in. He will be remembered as the leading supp port of John Mccullough, for he played Iago, Ingomar and some other parts in such a manner as to command special notice. Throughout the country since then he has appeared with much success as the leading support of Clara Morris, and all who saw f'Hoodman Blind" last season admired his powerful performance of Jack Yeulett. MT. Haworth will appear at the Hyperion Thea ter for three nights commencing Monday, September 26, in the famous play of 'Rose- dale" He succeeds MT. Lester Wallack in the part of Elliot Grey, the veteran actor manager, has personally superintended this revival, and was among the foremost to con gratulate the young actor upon his great success. Mir. w. R. Hayden, under whose management Mr. Haworth is travelling, has surrounded him by an excellent company, which includes Miss Sydney Armstrong and other well known names.

RATHBONE LODGE MEETS.

Giving Their First Entertainment
 This Season-A Watermelon Festival
 A Most Delightful Time.
 Rathbone lodge No. l, D. of L., had 8 most delightful time in their rooms in the COURIER building last night, as it was their first sociable and entertainment which they have given since the summer vacation. There was of course very large attendance, there being over hundred present. The entertainment was an excellent one and re- fected great credit on all who took part. It was heartily enjoyed by all and several en- cores had to be responded to. The pro gramme:
 .'i IN. P W. Willis and E. and H W Durand Violin solo. .............. Miss Cora Lamb Song s;I Pfneess q Lucy Song ........., Durand brothers and Willis Gomc song. ,ass M DIranb o,,lh
 The paper on "Ballooning" by D. s. Thomas was the feature of the evening aud for forty minutes held the audience to the closest attention The more noteworthy in- cidents of thirty four balloon voyages were related in an easy and pleasing manner, both interesting and instructive. Mir. Thomas was the bosom friend of Prof Donaldson and accompanied him in many of his voyages un- til the latter was lost in Lake Michigan. He holds the memory of his unfortunate cons panisn in the deepest reverence. Indeed, much of the interesting paper read last even ing was made up of incidents in the life of the brave Donaldson, the reader referring to himself only when the thread of. the story made it necessary.
 Princess Lucy proved quite an attraction. She is nineteen years old and but twenty- seven inches high.
 After the entertainment all went into an- other room where the tables were loaded with watermelons, and all did justice to them selves. The first social of Rathbone lodge has proven gratifying success.

where the papers were burned. / have

Social.

At a meeting of the Ladies' Aid and
Benevolent society, of Commerce
street Christian church, it was rcsolv-
ed to give n series of Parlor entertain-
ments, the object being to promote
sociabi ity among the members and
their friends, and to raise money to
assist in the various charitable and
missionary enterprises of this church
These ladies are doing good work

have standing committee consisting
of Mrs. l.. S. Garrison, Mrs. 5. Y.

whom are too modest to make their
wants known. These ladies give their

What's Dallas Doing. Anyhow?

San Antonio is bidding big for the

their sublime innocence thrt they will
get it. Fort Worth will have Il
100000 bid, but what has Dallas got
to say? There may be a still hunt
going on, but if there is il must be ms
silent as the tomb. Can't somebody
say something to break this awful
suspense?

throughout the city the underwriters

CHIEF KAHN: The statement that
the fire department "wcnt up by the
fire and half dozen persons tried in
vain TO stop Them" is not correct. We
did not miss step. The man who
said that any OF the apparatus but the

charges preferred against him and for
the underpaid firemen: yet nothing
has been said gilmore than fifty men

concerned,) and without visible

knocked their positions into a cooked
